Bethesda launcher shutting down, games shifting to Steam

Theย Microsoft-owned gaming companyย is bringing the curtains down on its game launcher and PC games store. And the date has been set to May 11, when both the entities go dark.

The unloved Bethesda launcher was deemed a massive alternative to giants in the digital game management program. It received the final bullet in a statement from the company.

If you are on Bethesda launcher, don’t panic just yet, as the company has planned migration toย Steam. All your save games, addons, and wallet funds will be transferred to the Steam account.
